What is a Frittata
A frittata is an Italian egg dish that is similar to a quiche or an omelet. The difference between a frittata and a quiche, is that a frittat doesn’t have a crust.
The main difference between a frittata and an omelet is that a frittata is cooked slowly over low heat, and it is not flipped during cooking. This allows the eggs to set evenly and results in a more custard-like texture.
Frittatas can be made with many different ingredients, including meats, vegetables, and cheeses. They are typically served for breakfast or brunch, but can also make a satisfying lunch or dinner.

Ingredients
- 11 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup onion sliced thin
- 2 cups broccoli fresh or frozen (thawed), chopped
- kosher salt to taste
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
- ½ cup reduced fat shredded Mexican style blend cheese
Instructions
- Place the oven rack to the middle of the oven.
- Preheat oven to 400° F.

- Season broccoli and onion with salt and pepper to taste.
- In the skillet, pour in eggs to cover broccoli evenly. Tilt the skillet slightly and rotate to evenly cover.
- While cooking for 4 minutes: As the outside edge starts to set, place spatula between the edge to the skillet and the eggs, and gently push the eggs in slightly, and tilt the skillet to allow the runny egg to flow under the frittata.
- After the 4 minutes, sprinkle reduced fat shredded Mexican style blend cheese over the top of the frittata.
- In preheated oven, place the skillet, and bake approximately 12 to 15 minutes, or until the frittata has fluffed up in size, is a little soft in the center, and has become golden brown.
